| Abstract | Understanding and controlling the interaction between particle and soft substrate is of fundamental importance, particularly in biological and manufacturing processes. For example, such processes include drug particle delivery onto soft tissues, as well as advanced manufacturing of particle coating on flexible polymer substrates. Despite extensive efforts, the existing analysis models commonly ignore or mistreat the mechanical collision process during the interaction between particle and soft su |
